After the victim told someone that Boeder had been taking funds from him, a new power of attorney was appointed. When the new power of attorney demanded Boeder return the money, Boeder only returned $11,000, according to the complaint. It was later learned Boeder used $4,300 to pay for the victim's assisted living home. The complaint also said Boeder used $6,500 to pay for a new cabin roof.

In interviews with the authorities, Boeder admitted he wrote out two $15,000 checks and signed them, according to the complaint.

In October 2018, Boeder returned over $8,000 to the victim that was unaccounted for.

The city issued a statement to KSTP regarding the charges against Boeder Thursday.

"The City of Gaylord is not a party to any legal action involving any of its elected officials," the statement read. "Because the City is not involved, any comment would be inappropriate."
